Hot Nanny

I originally posted this on my home board but thought it turned a little into a hot topic. I've never posted here so forgive me if its not the right kind of topic or I don't know the rules of the board. anyway, I posted that I'm about to hire a young hot Nanny and that I know I'm being ridiculous feeling insecure. But she just reminds me that maybe I should start paying more attention to my appearance lest my husband gets any ideas! (I'm mostly joking. I trust my husband). Anyway I was surprised at the replies I got that said they would not hire her. she really is a great fit for us. so would you hire an attractive nanny or do you think its inviting trouble? temptation like the women on my HB seem to think? (I know many of my HB moms read this so I want to be clear I'm not talking trash just interested what this board thinks)

Oh yes it is inviting temptation, and you have to have that thought in the back of your own mind or you wouldn't even be broaching the subject. Humans are lustful creatures, by nature, and putting a young, hot woman in your home right in front of your husband is not fair to him honestly. I'd go get myself an ugly old one lol

I have a wonderful nanny who is amazing with our children, who has become a part of our family. I have never once considered her a threat to my marriage because I trust my husband, my marriage and her. Regardless of how 'hot' she is. If someone is truly a fit for your family and someone that is honestly their for your kids they won't do a thing to hurt your children and that means tearing their family apart.

If depends on you and your marriage! Personally, I have a tendancy to get jealous. I trust my dh, but I still get jealous. If she's a wonderful nanny and you can put her outter beauty aside, hire her!!!! If not, then don't waste her's or your time! :) Good luck mama!!

My nanny was hot and young (she worked for us while I was still working full-time, now she just babysits on occasion.) I am fairly modest (for a 28 year old living in the southwest) so I was a little put off at first but she came highly recommended and had all the right qualifications. The first time I came home and my daughter was sleeping on her chest, perfectly content, all the worried thoughts went out of my head. My daughter has only fallen asleep on me (and my hubby, when she was very small) and the fact that she was this comfortable with her nanny was a very good sign to me. Plus, the nanny could have put her in the crib and let her cry for a bit but chose instead to cuddle her to sleep (my preferred method!) Her cute little mid-drift and perky boobs weren't even taken into consideration after that! I think it's natural to feel a little self conscious after having a baby but if a husband is going to cheat then he'll do it regardless of looks, don't worry about anything except the qualifications of your nanny and how comfortable you and your family feel with her.

I would not feel comfortable having anyone who was not family or very close friend to watch my child, but that's me. However I wouldnt feel threatened, maybe because I am young myself and I am confident about myself. I do think its funny that they say "temptation", do they actually think a young attractive woman (who would probably be with a young attractive man) would automatically be interested in their old and probably not so great looking husbands?

Just because a woman is hot, that doesn't mean she has no morals. Women complain about how they get treated differently because of their looks, and then get scoffed at for saying it, 'oh boo hoo, must suck to be so pretty. I wish I had that problem'. I think you must be pretty darn insecure in your relationship. There are hot women everywhere! To OP: view it as a favor she may bring to your relationship...you may step it up to be looking better and in turn it may enhance your love life.

anycolour, haha! I agree I mean, * I * think my husband is hot but I bet this 24yr old doesn't! plus I'm not so bad myself! I just got my brows done and finally picked up my contacts so I'm feeling better. I think as I get older I get less jealous. dh would have to be pretty stupid to throw it all away for the babysitter. I bet porn movies got that idea into ppls heads. kinda like how I'm gonna invite the pizza guy in, am I right?

LOL. You mean those cheesy pornos with the bald fat guy and barely 18 year old "babysitter" with pigtails isn't real life?!?! hahaha. I know what you mean. Honesty I wouldnt worry about it, if you trust your husband and she takes good care of your children then thats all that matters.

I trust my DH 100%, no worries there. Besides, he's a real tech nerd so, i love him to bits, but a hot young nanny? Probably not LOL! For me though, I would prefer a nanny who doesn't remind me daily that I am no longer a young hottie myself!

I would hire based on how she (or he) interacts with the kids. However, if you think her looks are going to affect your stress level, or how you treat her, it would be best for everyone involved if you hired someone else.

Meh. I'd never hire a nanny no matter her age or looks, but ultimately isn't this an issue where your decision depends on your relationship with your husband and your own insecurities? I would say go with your gut on this one.
